MetaMons competitive notes
Lickitung is a normal-type Pokémon whose base stats lean toward HP — at 385 BST it is a low total for competitive play, with slow (base 30) and a mixed attacking profile. Its Own Tempo ability matters more than the raw numbers when it hits the field: check what it does before deciding between a sweeper, pivot, or support role for Lickitung. Build around what Lickitung actually threatens, not its in-game lore — start from its weaknesses and strongest STAB moves, then decide whether its Speed, bulk, or coverage justifies a team slot.
